Actions by
Negro Cager
Bring Boos
By JACK GATES
New Orleans (U.R) White
fans booed a visiting Negro
player Tuesday night for refus
ing to accept a congratulatory
pat on the back from players of
the opposing team when he left
an unsegregated college basket
ball game.
The player, Shellie McMillon
of Bradley university, had
fouled out of the game between
his team and Loyola university
of New Orleans.
But McMillon, who had ob
jected to previous foul rulings,
angrily waved them off. Then he
turned to the mixed crowd and
stuck his tongue out at them.
The white fans booed and
hissed. The band struck up'
"Dixie."
McMillon, one of the few Ne
groes ever permitted to play
with whites in major collegiate
athletics in the South, had con
tributed 11 .points to favored
Bradley's 71-65 loss to Loyola.
As the lanky Negro finally
left the court with eight min
utes left to play the booing and
hissing gave way to a chant to
the tune of "Bye-Bye, Black
bird." Comment Declined
Loyola officials who pioneered
desegregation of athletics at this
site of a Negro's prospective con
troversial participation in the
Sugar Bowl football game, de
clined to comment on the inci
dent. The university, a Roman Cath
olic institution, first lowered the
South's color line on players in
its home basketball games and
last year ended segregation of
spectators.
Thus far, all-white Loyola"s
games with teams bringing Ne
gro players have been sole major
exceptions to strict segregation
of collegiate athletics here, as
in the rest of the deep South.
Last year Boston College
brought a Negro player to the
Sugar Bowl game with Tennes
see but he did not go on the field.
Loyola next week meets San
Francisco university, whose top
player is a Negro, Bill Russell,
a native of Monroe, La.

HARLEM CLOWNS PLAY CAB
TEAM ON THURSDAY NIGHT
Get out the laugh-o-meter be
cause the Harlem Clowns are
coming to Crater high gym at
Central Point Thursday night to
play the Yellow Cab basketball
team. Game time is 8 p.m.
It ;isn't a "laugh a minute"
team this year it is one' con
tinuous howl!
Manager Runt Pullins has
gathered together a gang of bas
ketball comic that will have jam
packed gymnasiums in an up
roar from one end of the nation
to the other and fans can expect
the best when they play here.
When the name "Harlem
Clowns" is mentioned, hoop fans
get ready for an evening of en
tertainment. The fans come out
to see a fancy exhibition, razzle
dazzle ball handling, intricate
routines, both planned and im
promptu comedy and all sorts of
shenanigans.
Keep Game Even
The Clowns are unique in the
fact they never try to run up a
huge score against opponents-
It has been their policy to keep
the game even, devoting much of
the time to comedy stuff and ball
handling routines.
, There are times, t naturally,
when the Clowns have to extend
themselves. When the home
team is exceptionally strong or
gets "hot," the Clowns have a
ball game on their hands. Then
you see action as well as comedy.
The Harlem Clowns ' are a
happy bunch of ball players
no one individual is the big star

Joe Kuharich Voted No. 1 Pro Mentor
By BOB SERLING
United Press Sports Writer
Washington (U.R) Two
years ago today, Joe Kuharich
was an unemployed coach look
ing for a job.
One year ago today, he was
employed but worried about
keeping his job, after losing nine
out of 12 games as head coach
of the Washington Redskins.
Today, big Joe is the United
Press National Football League
Coach of the Year, after his Red
skins wound up as the surprise
team of the 1955 season with
an 8-4 record and second place
in the NFL's Eastern Division.
Picked By Writers
Kuharich was picked by 15
out of 30 sportswriters who cov
er professional football in 11
cities. Sid Gillman of the Los
Angeles Rams ran second with
seven votes, and other ballots
were scattered among Paul
Brown of Cleveland, Weeb Eu
bank of the Baltimore Colts,
George Halas of - the Chicago
Bears and Ray Richards of the
Chicago Cardinals.
Kuharich's selection was al
most a foregone conclusion after
the job he did with the down
trodden Redskins. Washington
has not finished higher than
third in 10 years, previously had
only one winning season since
1945, and was given no chance
as a title contender this year.
Knocked Off Browns
But under the ex-Notre Dame
star's guidance, ,the 1955 Red
skins knocked off the powerful
Browns in the season's opener,
and stayed in the running until
the next to last week when New
York eliminated them.
Kuharich turned out to be
an astute trader and a ruthless
pruner completely rebuilding
the Redskins in his first two
years as coach. The rebuilding
job extended even to the coach
ing staff only Backfield Coach
Mike Nixon remains of the as
sistants Kuharich started with
in 1954.
Milwaukee (U.R) Marquette
basketball Coach Jack Nagle
should have taken tj advice of
his scouting report on the San
Francisco Dons. "After seeing
this team my advice to you is
simple: Cancel the game." Mar
quette lost to the top ranked
Dons, 65-58. o
Prospectors
Trip Loggers
Prospect Prospect high's
hoopsters pushed ahead after
lagging in the first quarter and
went on with a fine second half
to overcome Butte Falls here
last night 69 to 57.
Butte Falls headed through
the first quarter until the last
minute when Prospect managed
to go on top 15 to 12. The Cou
gars then were in front 31 to 24
at the half and 53 to 40 after
three quarters. :
Bill Irwin of the BF Loggers
was high point man with 30,
firing with uncanny accuracy.
Jim Daniels got 22 for Prospect.
Don Vannice made 13 consecu
tive free shots in collecting 21
points for the Cougars and was
the big man in rebounding,
plucking with a big total of 23.
